Assessment of a PK/PD Target of Continuous Infusion Beta-Lactams Useful for Preventing Microbiological Failure and/or Resistance Development in Critically Ill Patients Affected by Documented Gram-Negative Infections

Assessment of a PK/PD Target of Continuous Infusion Beta-Lactams Useful for Preventing Microbiological Failure and/or Resistance Development in Critically Ill Patients Affected by Documented Gram-Negative Infections

Background: Emerging data suggest that more aggressive beta-lactam PK/PD targets could minimize the occurrence of microbiological failure and/or resistance development. This study aims to assess whether a PK/PD target threshold of continuous infusion (CI) beta-lactams may be useful in preventing mic...
